UNBOXED: Reviewing the Navdy Heads Up Display

The Bad: Pricey; adds a few steps to the driving routine; bulky design

The Rating: 3 out of 5

As the proud owner of a 2002 Saturn L100, I’m more than happy to jump at the chance to review aftermarket car technology that can bring my ancient ride into the 21st century. So when Navdy reached out to offer their heads up display for review, I was beyond thrilled to take their heads up display literally out on the road.

My ride aside, Navdy (the product) offered a glimpse at what the future could be like with augmented reality steering the ship. It’s a topic we’ve talked a lot about recently, but to actually immerse ourselves in AR technology and take it for a spin is an opportunity we couldn’t pass up.
